The Elephant in the room..... Dontari Poe

[GoobyPls]

He’s terrible. Wiffs on tackles, gets manhandled in one on one situations and is slower than molasses 

[Millioso7]

Literally he’s an elephant hahahaha but no seriously he can definitely play better but he’s not as bad as what your trying to paint ..

[CarolinaNCSU]

He and KK both have been average at best.  Out of what should be a Top 3 DT rotation, we're not looking too good. 

[TheRumGone]

Star was massively underrated here at what he was good at. He never became a pass rusher but goddamn he kept the linebackers clean. Poe has played ok, not great.

[Harbingers]

Is not star. Gmagic would have kept star. 

You have Hurney to blame. Plain and simple.

Your assumption is that Star would have wanted to stay in Carolina.

[Dave Gettleman's Shorts]

Every play Poe's getting pushed back 3-4 yards. Star was never a penetrator but at least he held his ground.

1st fourth down convertion went right at Butler who continued to disappoint. 

[Snake]

Star was no better. Our DL as a whole would look better if Rivera would allow the offense to actually put up some points in the first half.

I think he would have for the right price. KK and him were DG’s unstoppable team. They were our line. We didn’t have to worry about the line. Obviously hardy fuged that up. But they each had their own line and they could trade off quickly. That’s what made our DL unstoppable.

edit: we had the price. Till DG got shitcanned.

I don’t blame hurney for this. Poe played really well for the falcons last year. Let’s just hope he gets better as the year goes on.

[klumme]

He is and have never been about rushing the QB. And tonight we stopped Phillys rushing. Since that is what his job mainly is I say... Good job.

 

With that said. Something is not right with the D-line and he is on the D-line so some blame he must take.

[Donald LaFell]

Poe has gotten a ton of push before. I’ve explicitly noticed it. I’m guessing he was just outmatched this game. 

[Pimpdaddy]

Donatari Ho..... get good push...then gets caught up in the fray and gives up..
